Since mechanical treatment is performed by cutting with a cutting tool, it is important to reduce the cutting force even slightly, eliminate dynamic fluctuations of the tooth during cutting, and reduce the factors that cause dynamic irritation to the nerves. can be considered as one method. The order of methods for reducing eruption pain is 1) fixation of the tooth, 2)
Reduction of cutting force, 3) utilization of anesthetic effect can be considered. In other words, we believe that reducing the cutting force during cutting, eliminating the dynamic behavior of the tooth, and, if unavoidable, using anesthesia injections or administering laughing gas anesthesia is a way to prevent the pain from being felt. .

However, there have recently been an increasing number of cases in which secondary anesthesia using drugs cannot be used due to reasons such as drug-induced shock. Furthermore, even if anesthesia is available, recovery takes a long time. Ideally, treatment should be performed without causing discomfort, pain, fear, or tower pain even without the use of anesthesia. The present invention relates to an epoch-making new tooth cutting device that can realize this long-awaited ideal. First, consider reducing the cutting force.

この切削力の軽減のためにとられてきた従釆の方法は、

The traditional methods used to reduce this cutting force are:
This method involves increasing the rotational speed of the cutting tool.

That is, this is a method of cutting at a high speed of about 300,000 rotations using an air turbine. If this 300,000 rotation speed were further increased, the cutting force could be reduced even more than today's cutting force, but with today's technology, around 300,000 rotations seems to be the limit. . FIG. 1 shows a model of the vibration system between the cutting tool and the tooth during high-speed cutting.

The tooth 1 is assumed to be fixed to the alveolar bone 13 via the springs 2, 3 and the dashpots 4, 5, and the tooth 1 is cut by rotating the cutting tool 7 at high speed in the direction of the arrow 8. The nerve 6 is deformed under pressure in proportion to the vibration of the tooth 1.
Including the nerves that sense the fluctuations of TOMS fibers and odontoblasts and fibroblasts that are displaced and supported by the dental fluid in the dentin tubules, by supporting springs 9, 10 and dashpots 11, 12, It is thought that this dynamic displacement is what is perceived as a tower pain. In other words, it is assumed that the nervous system including the eruption pain transmission system and the eruption pain judgment function at the terminal end also has frequency characteristics. Considering this, it can be seen that the less dynamic behavior of the tooth 1 during tooth cutting, the less the eruption pain. The cutting force waveform when rotating at high speed is expressed as t of P+psln (P
is the static cutting force, p is the dynamic cutting force, and is the angular velocity of the cutting force waveform).

That is, an epoch-making effect is brought about in which the displacement of the tooth 1 becomes smaller than that of a rod when the cutting tool 7 is rotated only at high speed, and the pain is reduced.

In other words, it is a device that vibrates a tool ultrasonically and rotates it for cutting. In response to the pulse cutting force waveform obtained by ultrasonically vibrating the cutting tool and creating a relationship between the vibration speed and the cutting speed, the tooth 1 is ultrasonically vibrated and the cutting tool is moved independently of the vibration speed. By making the rotation as high as possible with current technology, creating a relationship between the vibration speed and the feed rate, and making the feed rate slower than the vibration speed, it is possible to generate a pulsed cutting force waveform that acts on the tooth. The cutting force can be drastically reduced.

For this purpose, a bridge method is used, which uses adjacent teeth to secure the tooth in place. This is a conventional method. However, since it is very inconvenient to use this bridging method every time a tooth is treated by cutting a tooth using this cutting tool, it is not used in practice and patients are forced to put up with the disease. The current situation is that

Therefore, we will focus on the structural characteristics of teeth and consider how to utilize those characteristics to apparently maximize the spring constant k.

A tooth with a constant mass m is made, and the tip of the magnetic head and vibrator 14 is squeezed, and it has a rounded shape for the purpose of applying pressure without the purpose of cutting, and also serves as a home for amplitude expansion. Lightly pressurize in the direction of arrow 17 with contactor 15 and apply vibration in the direction of arrow 16 at frequency F and amplitude a, for example 5.
When ultrasonic vibration is applied at 0 kHz and a minute amplitude of 4 meters, the tooth will vibrate at a frequency close to this frequency and amplitude. This increases the spring constant apparently. The natural frequency of tooth 1 is 300
It is about Hz to 2000Hz. Now, for example, tooth 1
If the natural frequency of is 5ooHZ, it is a holy fortress. ≦loo, that is, the imitation constant of about 100 has been increased. In reality, an ultrasonic vibrating contact is pressed against the tooth to vibrate the tooth, so the tooth does not necessarily vibrate at the same frequency as the contact, but it vibrates at a frequency close to the contact. The tooth vibrates and increases the apparent natural frequency of the tooth, making the apparent spring constant of the tooth higher than the tooth's original spring constant. The direction of vibration is given in the direction in which the tooth 1 is likely to vibrate.

In other words, by applying ultrasonic vibration energy to vibrate the tooth 1, which has a low natural frequency and which tends to wobble greatly, in a range of minute amplitude of several tens of meters, the spring constant of the tooth 1 in its original state can be increased by an apparently large amount. The spring constant can be increased so that the displacement can be kept within a minute amplitude range of about several rms. Stimulation of the nerves by minute displacements with an amplitude of about 3 to 4 Am at extremely high frequencies in the ultrasonic range is due to the low frequency characteristics of the entire nervous system, including the tower pain transmitting nervous system and the pain judgment function at the terminal end. Unable to follow it, the nervous system becomes stuck and cannot sense it, so there is no pain at all.

The method of using this frequency characteristic of the nervous system to vibrate the tooth with ultrasonic waves so that the tooth does not feel pain is called mechanical anesthesia for the tooth. On the other hand, when brittle materials such as tooth enamel and dentin are subjected to ultrasonic vibration, stress and strain are generated due to the vibration, and the apparent rock-like properties are displaced, resulting in a cutting resistance of approximately 1.5~ I discovered that there is a phenomenon where the price drops by about 3 times.

Therefore, cutting the tooth 1 by ultrasonic vibration not only reduces the cutting force itself, but also dramatically increases the spring constant, which prevents the tooth from fluctuating due to large displacements and reduces nerve stimulation. In addition to this, the mechanical anesthetic effect is added, resulting in the revolutionary effect of completely eliminating diseases during tooth cutting.

In other words, when the tooth 1 with a low natural frequency is subjected to ultrasonic vibration as shown in the figure, the tooth 1 vibrates ultrasonically at that frequency, and the apparent spring constant increases dramatically due to the applied ultrasonic vibration energy. When No. 1 is cut at high speed with a diamond bur rotating at high speed, the cutting force is drastically reduced, and the vibration state of the tooth is no longer disturbed.

Therefore, the tooth maintains stable ultrasonic vibration at the given ultrasonic frequency and minute vibration, and this minute amplitude can be ignored, and the tooth maintains an immobile state and does this without greatly agitating the nerves. In addition, a mechanical anesthetic effect is added to achieve the revolutionary effect of completely eliminating pain during tooth cutting. In addition, secondary effects such as increased safety during treatment can also be obtained since the patient does not have to turn his or her face away during treatment. Next, an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2 and below.

FIG. 2 shows a vertical ultrasonic vibrator 14 and a vertical ultrasonic vibrating horn contactor 15 having a length that resonates at the frequency of the vibrator 14.

As the vertical ultrasonic transducer 14, an exposed or magnetic oscillator is used. The frequency is set to be a high frequency of ultrasonic waves of 20k days or more. By setting such a high frequency, the tooth vibrating device of the present invention can be made lightweight and compact. The horn contactor 15 is generally made of a metal rod, but in some cases a non-metal rod that is easily elastically deformed may be used.

The tip is rounded and shaped so as not to damage the tooth surface because the purpose is to bring it into contact with the tooth 1 and vibrate the tooth 1 without cutting it. In some cases, a curved surface shape may be used to stabilize the contact state with the tooth surface. This tip contact 15b does not wear out unlike a cutting tool, so there is no need to replace it and it can be manufactured integrally with the horn 15a.
Depending on the application, it may be necessary to prepare one with a smaller diameter or one with a larger diameter, so in this case, the tip contact 15b is separated from the horn 15a and used by screwing or tapering together. . When the terminal 19 of the vibrator is connected to the output terminal of the ultrasonic oscillator, the tip of the contact 15b vibrates ultrasonically in the direction of the arrow 16.

A grip 18 is provided by utilizing the vibration nodes of the horn 15a. Then, hold this grip and press horn contact 1.
5 is lightly pressed against the tooth 1 in the direction of arrow 17 to vibrate the tooth 1, and is cut using a cutting tool 7 made of a diamond grindstone rotating at high speed in the direction of arrow 8. When the front surface of the tooth 1 is covered with a metal crown or the like, the vibration drive through the metal crown is not sufficient, so it becomes necessary to bring the horn contactor 15 into contact with the back surface that is not covered with the crown.

第3図はこのような場合のために考案した装置である。FIG. 3 shows a device devised for such a case.

This is a tooth vibrating device having a shape in which a contactor 21 having a shape that bends and resonates at that frequency is attached at the vibration resonator. A rounded protrusion similar to the shape of the tip of the horn contactor 15 shown in FIG. 2 is provided at the vibration recovery position of the tip of the contactor 21.

This device causes the tip of the contactor 22 to vibrate in the direction of arrow 16. This is lightly pressed against the tooth 1 in the direction of the arrow 17 to vibrate the tooth 1, and the tooth 1 is cut by a cutting tool 7 rotating at high speed. Figure 5 shows the torsional oscillator 26.
This tooth vibrating device includes a torsional ultrasonic vibrating horn 23 having a length that resonates at the frequency of the vibrator 26, and a torsional vibrating contactor or a bending vibrating contactor 25. When the terminal 28 of the vibrator is connected to the output terminal of the ultrasonic oscillator, the tip of the horn 23 torsionally vibrates in the direction of the arrow 24.
A grip 27 is provided by utilizing the vibration nodes of the horn 23. A torsion or bending vibration contact 25 is attached to the tip of the horn 23 using its vibration node. In this way, the tip of the contactor 25 can be ultrasonically vibrated in the direction of the arrow 16. Grip the grip 27 and touch the contact 25.
The tip of the tooth 1 is lightly pressed in the direction of the arrow 17 to vibrate the tooth 1, and the tooth 1 is cut by the cutting tool 7. In order to confirm the effect of reducing cutting resistance, ivory and extracted teeth were glued to the tip of a horn that vibrates ultrasonically at a frequency of 28 kHz, and the amplitude of the horn tip was 8 mm and the frequency was Ivory and teeth were subjected to ultrasonic vibration at 28kHz, and then cut using a constant load method using a diamond bit or a diamond grindstone, and the amount of cutting was compared.

As a result, it was found that the amount of cutting within a certain period of time was approximately 2 to 6 times greater than the amount of cutting that was achieved using the conventional method that does not use ultrasonic vibrations on the ivory or tooth. In this way, when ivory or teeth are cut under constant pressure, the amount of cutting is large, which means that the cutting force is small.
It can be seen that this method is one of the new techniques for reducing the cutting force on ivory and teeth. When using only high-speed rotation with conventional air turbines, if the sharpness of the tool deteriorates even slightly, the patient feels discomfort and irritation, so the tool has no choice but to be replaced at that point, which ends the tool's lifespan. However, the tool life was extremely short.
According to the present invention, the tool life can be extended by 3 to 1 parts, and furthermore, the cutting force waveform is pulse-shaped.
The waveform of the cutting heat generated during tooth cutting also becomes a pulse-like waveform, and similar to the frequency characteristic in the mechanical system, a frequency characteristic appears in the heat transfer system, and the pain caused by the cutting heat is drastically reduced. Even for teeth that are in a state of need,
The theory behind conventional tooth milling is that anesthesia can be omitted, and even when anesthesia is unavailable due to drug-induced shock, tooth milling can be performed without causing pain, discomfort, or fear. It has an epoch-making effect that could not be achieved with technology.
